57-406: It is notable for supporting multiple channels of potentially different pixel sizes, including 32-bit unsigned integer, 32-bit and 16-bit floating point values, as well as various compression techniques which include lossless and lossy compression algorithms. It also has arbitrary channels and encodes multiple points of view such as left- and right-camera images. A full technical introduction of

114-575: A convolutional layer, the image becomes abstracted to a feature map, also called an activation map, with shape: (number of inputs) × (feature map height) × (feature map width) × (feature map channels ). Convolutional layers convolve the input and pass its result to the next layer. This is similar to the response of a neuron in the visual cortex to a specific stimulus. Each convolutional neuron processes data only for its receptive field . Although fully connected feedforward neural networks can be used to learn features and classify data, this architecture

171-483: A convolutional neural network, the hidden layers include one or more layers that perform convolutions. Typically this includes a layer that performs a dot product of the convolution kernel with the layer's input matrix. This product is usually the Frobenius inner product , and its activation function is commonly ReLU . As the convolution kernel slides along the input matrix for the layer, the convolution operation generates

228-420: A feature map, which in turn contributes to the input of the next layer. This is followed by other layers such as pooling layers , fully connected layers, and normalization layers. Here it should be noted how close a convolutional neural network is to a matched filter . In a CNN, the input is a tensor with shape: (number of inputs) × (input height) × (input width) × (input channels ) After passing through

285-499: A final color image can be rendered. The concept of channels is extended beyond the visible spectrum in multispectral and hyperspectral imaging. In that context, each channel corresponds to a range of wavelengths and contains spectroscopic information. The channels can have multiple widths and ranges. Three main channel types (or color models ) exist, and have respective strengths and weaknesses. An RGB image has three channels: red, green, and blue. RGB channels roughly follow

342-458: A given dataset rather than the biases of a poorly-populated set. Convolutional networks were inspired by biological processes in that the connectivity pattern between neurons resembles the organization of the animal visual cortex . Individual cortical neurons respond to stimuli only in a restricted region of the visual field known as the receptive field . The receptive fields of different neurons partially overlap such that they cover

399-472: A lot of grain, the two Zip compression methods seem to work best, while the PIZ compression algorithm is better suited to grainy images. The following options are available: From OpenEXR.org's Technical Introduction: The ILM OpenEXR file format was designed and implemented by Florian Kainz, Wojciech Jarosz, and Rod Bogart. The PIZ compression scheme is based on an algorithm by Christian Rouet. Josh Pines helped extend

456-562: A non-uniform background. In 3D computer graphics , multiple channels are used for additional control over material rendering; e.g., controlling specularity and so on. In digitizing images, the color channels are converted to numbers. Since images contain thousands of pixels, each with multiple channels, channels are usually encoded in as few bits as possible. Typical values are 8 bits per channel or 16 bits per channel. Indexed color effectively gets rid of channels altogether to get, for instance, 3 channels into 8 bits ( GIF ) or 16 bits. Since

513-405: A pyramidal structure as in the neocognitron, it performed a global optimization of the weights instead of a local one. TDNNs are convolutional networks that share weights along the temporal dimension. They allow speech signals to be processed time-invariantly. In 1990 Hampshire and Waibel introduced a variant that performs a two-dimensional convolution. Since these TDNNs operated on spectrograms,

570-401: A restricted area of the previous layer called the neuron's receptive field . Typically the area is a square (e.g. 5 by 5 neurons). Whereas, in a fully connected layer, the receptive field is the entire previous layer . Thus, in each convolutional layer, each neuron takes input from a larger area in the input than previous layers. This is due to applying the convolution over and over, which takes

627-407: A series of code. A channel in this context is the grayscale image of the same size as a color image, made of just one of these primary colors. For instance, an image from a standard digital camera will have a red, green and blue channel. A grayscale image has just one channel. In geographic information systems , channels are often referred to as raster bands . Another closely related concept

684-399: Is feature maps , which are used in convolutional neural networks . In the digital realm, there can be any number of conventional primary colors making up an image; a channel in this case is extended to be the grayscale image based on any such conventional primary color. By extension, a channel is any grayscale image of the same dimension as and associated with the original image . Channel

741-405: Is 48-bit (very high color-depth), each channel has 16-bit per pixel color, that is 16-bit red, green, and blue for each per pixel. Notice how the grey trees have similar brightness in all channels, the red dress is much brighter in the red channel than in the other two, and how the green part of the picture is shown much brighter in the green channel. YUV images are an affine transformation of

798-432: Is a conventional term used to refer to a certain component of an image. In reality, any image format can use any algorithm internally to store images. For instance, GIF images actually refer to the color in each pixel by an index number , which refers to a table where three color components are stored. However, regardless of how a specific format stores the images, discrete color channels can always be determined, as long as

855-518: Is a modified Neocognitron by keeping only the convolutional interconnections between the image feature layers and the last fully connected layer. The model was trained with back-propagation. The training algorithm was further improved in 1991 to improve its generalization ability. The model architecture was modified by removing the last fully connected layer and applied for medical image segmentation (1991) and automatic detection of breast cancer in mammograms (1994) . A different convolution-based design

912-426: Is a spatial convolution applied independently over each channel of the input tensor, while the pointwise convolution is a standard convolution restricted to the use of 1 × 1 {\displaystyle 1\times 1} kernels. Convolutional networks may include local and/or global pooling layers along with traditional convolutional layers. Pooling layers reduce the dimensions of data by combining

969-428: Is black). 64-bit storage for CMYK images (16-bit per channel) is not common, since CMYK is usually device-dependent, whereas RGB is the generic standard for device-independent storage. HSV , or hue saturation value , stores color information in three channels, just like RGB, but one channel is devoted to brightness (value), and the other two convey colour information. The value channel is similar to (but not exactly

1026-433: Is connected to all neurons in the next layer . The "full connectivity" of these networks makes them prone to overfitting data. Typical ways of regularization, or preventing overfitting, include: penalizing parameters during training (such as weight decay) or trimming connectivity (skipped connections, dropout, etc.) Robust datasets also increase the probability that CNNs will learn the generalized principles that characterize

1083-455: Is constrained by the availability of computing resources. It was superior than other commercial courtesy amount reading systems (as of 1995). The system was integrated in NCR 's check reading systems, and fielded in several American banks since June 1996, reading millions of checks per day. A shift-invariant neural network was proposed by Wei Zhang et al. for image character recognition in 1988. It

1140-421: Is generally impractical for larger inputs (e.g., high-resolution images), which would require massive numbers of neurons because each pixel is a relevant input feature. A fully connected layer for an image of size 100 × 100 has 10,000 weights for each neuron in the second layer. Convolution reduces the number of free parameters, allowing the network to be deeper. For example, using a 5 × 5 tiling region, each with

1197-757: Is the transpose of a convolutional layer. Specifically, a convolutional layer can be written as a multiplication with a matrix, and a deconvolutional layer is multiplication with the transpose of that matrix. An unpooling layer expands the layer. The max-unpooling layer is the simplest, as it simply copies each entry multiple times. For example, a 2-by-2 max-unpooling layer is [ x ] ↦ [ x x x x ] {\displaystyle [x]\mapsto {\begin{bmatrix}x&x\\x&x\end{bmatrix}}} . Deconvolution layers are used in image generators. By default, it creates periodic checkerboard artifact, which can be fixed by upscale-then-convolve. CNN are often compared to

1254-585: The signal-processing concept of a filter , and demonstrated it on a speech recognition task. They also pointed out that as a data-trainable system, convolution is essentially equivalent to correlation since reversal of the weights does not affect the final learned function ("For convenience, we denote * as correlation instead of convolution. Note that convolving a(t) with b(t) is equivalent to correlating a(-t) with b(t)."). Modern CNN implementations typically do correlation and call it convolution, for convenience, as they did here. The time delay neural network (TDNN)

1311-524: The PIZ algorithm for 16-bit and found optimizations for the float-to-half conversions. Drew Hess packaged and adapted ILM's internal source code for public release and maintains the OpenEXR software distribution. The PXR24 compression method is based on an algorithm written by Loren Carpenter at Pixar Animation Studios. Channel (digital image) Color digital images are made of pixels , and pixels are made of combinations of primary colors represented by

1368-529: The RGB colorspace, originated in broadcasting. The Y channel correlates approximately with perceived intensity, whilst the U and V channels provide colour information. A CMYK image has four channels: cyan, magenta, yellow, and key (black). CMYK is the standard for print, where subtractive coloring is used. A 32-bit CMYK image (the industry standard as of 2005) is made of four 8-bit channels, one for cyan, one for magenta, one for yellow, and one for key color (typically

1425-469: The alpha channel is extremely useful for compositing digital images together. Bluescreen technology involves filming actors in front of a primary color background, then setting that color to transparent, and compositing it with a background. The GIF and PNG image formats use alpha channels on the World Wide Web to merge images on web pages so that they appear to have an arbitrary shape even on

1482-436: The average value. Fully connected layers connect every neuron in one layer to every neuron in another layer. It is the same as a traditional multilayer perceptron neural network (MLP). The flattened matrix goes through a fully connected layer to classify the images. In neural networks, each neuron receives input from some number of locations in the previous layer. In a convolutional layer, each neuron receives input from only

1539-630: The bit depth in color channels ( hue and saturation ), while keeping all brightness information (value in HSV ). 16-bit HiColor stores red and blue in 5 bits, and green in 6 bits. Convolutional neural network A convolutional neural network ( CNN ) is a regularized type of feed-forward neural network that learns features by itself via filter (or kernel) optimization. This type of deep learning network has been applied to process and make predictions from many different types of data including text, images and audio. Convolution-based networks are

1596-455: The brain does not necessarily perceive distinctions in each channel to the same degree as in other channels, it is possible that differing the number of bits allocated to each channel will result in more optimal storage; in particular, for RGB images, compressing the blue channel the most and the red channel the least may be better than giving equal space to each. Among other techniques, lossy video compression uses chroma subsampling to reduce

1653-496: The coefficients had to be laboriously hand-designed. Following the advances in the training of 1-D CNNs by Waibel et al. (1987), Yann LeCun et al. (1989) used back-propagation to learn the convolution kernel coefficients directly from images of hand-written numbers. Learning was thus fully automatic, performed better than manual coefficient design, and was suited to a broader range of image recognition problems and image types. Wei Zhang et al. (1988) used back-propagation to train

1710-410: The color receptors in the human eye , and are used in computer displays and image scanners . If the RGB image is 24-bit (the industry standard as of 2005), each channel has 8 bits, for red, green, and blue—in other words, the image is composed of three images (one for each channel), where each image can store discrete pixels with conventional brightness intensities between 0 and 255. If the RGB image

1767-412: The concept of max pooling, a fixed filtering operation that calculates and propagates the maximum value of a given region. They did so by combining TDNNs with max pooling to realize a speaker-independent isolated word recognition system. In their system they used several TDNNs per word, one for each syllable . The results of each TDNN over the input signal were combined using max pooling and the outputs of

1824-470: The convolution kernels of a CNN for alphabets recognition. The model was called shift-invariant pattern recognition neural network before the name CNN was coined later in the early 1990s. Wei Zhang et al. also applied the same CNN without the last fully connected layer for medical image object segmentation (1991) and breast cancer detection in mammograms (1994). This approach became a foundation of modern computer vision . In 1990 Yamaguchi et al. introduced

1881-523: The cortex to form a complete map of visual space. The cortex in each hemisphere represents the contralateral visual field . Their 1968 paper identified two basic visual cell types in the brain: Hubel and Wiesel also proposed a cascading model of these two types of cells for use in pattern recognition tasks. Inspired by Hubel and Wiesel's work, in 1969, Kunihiko Fukushima published a deep CNN that uses ReLU activation function . Unlike most modern networks, this network used hand-designed kernels. It

1938-434: The de-facto standard in deep learning -based approaches to computer vision and image processing, and have only recently have been replaced -- in some cases -- by newer deep learning architectures such as the transformer . Vanishing gradients and exploding gradients, seen during backpropagation in earlier neural networks, are prevented by using regularized weights over fewer connections. For example, for each neuron in

1995-523: The decades to train the weights of a neocognitron. Today, however, the CNN architecture is usually trained through backpropagation . The term "convolution" first appears in neural networks in a paper by Toshiteru Homma, Les Atlas, and Robert Marks II at the first Conference on Neural Information Processing Systems in 1987. Their paper replaced multiplication with convolution in time, inherently providing shift invariance, motivated by and connecting more directly to

2052-502: The entire visual field. CNNs use relatively little pre-processing compared to other image classification algorithms . This means that the network learns to optimize the filters (or kernels) through automated learning, whereas in traditional algorithms these filters are hand-engineered . This independence from prior knowledge and human intervention in feature extraction is a major advantage. A convolutional neural network consists of an input layer, hidden layers and an output layer. In

2109-491: The format is available on the OpenEXR website. OpenEXR, or EXR for short, is a deep raster format developed by ILM and broadly used in the computer-graphics industry, both visual effects and animation. OpenEXR's multi-resolution and arbitrary channel format makes it appealing for compositing , as it alleviates several painful elements of the process. Since it can store arbitrary channels— specular , diffuse, alpha , RGB, normals, and various other types—in one file, it takes away

2166-478: The fully-connected layer, 10,000 weights would be required for processing an image sized 100 × 100 pixels. However, applying cascaded convolution (or cross-correlation) kernels, only 25 neurons are required to process 5x5-sized tiles. Higher-layer features are extracted from wider context windows, compared to lower-layer features. Some applications of CNNs include: CNNs are also known as shift invariant or space invariant artificial neural networks , based on

2223-699: The image's attributes such as tiles and channels. The OpenEXR library is developed in C++ and is available in source format as well as compiled format for Microsoft Windows , macOS and Linux . Python bindings for the library are also available for version 2.x. OpenEXR was created by ILM in 1999 and released to the public in 2003 along with an open source software library . It soon received wide adoption by software used in computer graphics , particularly for film and television production. The format has been updated several times, adding support for tiles, mipmaps , new compression methods, and other features. In 2007, OpenEXR

2280-555: The need to store this information in separate files. The multi-channel concept also reduces the necessity to "bake" in the aforementioned data to the final image. If a compositor is not happy with the current level of specularity , they can adjust that specific channel. OpenEXR's API makes tools development a relative ease for developers. Since there are almost never two identical production pipelines, custom tools always need to be developed to address problems (e.g. image-manipulation issue). OpenEXR's library allows quick and easy access to

2337-422: The outputs of neuron clusters at one layer into a single neuron in the next layer. Local pooling combines small clusters, tiling sizes such as 2 × 2 are commonly used. Global pooling acts on all the neurons of the feature map. There are two common types of pooling in popular use: max and average. Max pooling uses the maximum value of each local cluster of neurons in the feature map, while average pooling takes

2394-413: The pooling layers were then passed on to networks performing the actual word classification. LeNet-5, a pioneering 7-level convolutional network by LeCun et al. in 1995, classifies hand-written numbers on checks ( British English : cheques ) digitized in 32x32 pixel images. The ability to process higher-resolution images requires larger and more layers of convolutional neural networks, so this technique

2451-409: The previous layer. The function that is applied to the input values is determined by a vector of weights and a bias (typically real numbers). Learning consists of iteratively adjusting these biases and weights. The vectors of weights and biases are called filters and represent particular features of the input (e.g., a particular shape). A distinguishing feature of CNNs is that many neurons can share

2508-404: The receptive field size without increasing the number of parameters by interleaving visible and blind regions. Moreover, a single dilated convolutional layer can comprise filters with multiple dilation ratios, thus having a variable receptive field size. Each neuron in a neural network computes an output value by applying a specific function to the input values received from the receptive field in

2565-430: The resulting phoneme recognition system was invariant to both time and frequency shifts, as with images processed by a neocognitron. TDNNs improved the performance of far-distance speech recognition. Denker et al. (1989) designed a 2-D CNN system to recognize hand-written ZIP Code numbers. However, the lack of an efficient training method to determine the kernel coefficients of the involved convolutions meant that all

2622-449: The same as) the CMYK black channel, or its negative . HSV is especially useful in lossy video compression , where loss of color information is less noticeable to the human eye . The alpha channel stores transparency information—the higher the value, the more opaque that pixel is. No camera or scanner measures transparency, although physical objects certainly can possess transparency, but

2679-407: The same filter. This reduces the memory footprint because a single bias and a single vector of weights are used across all receptive fields that share that filter, as opposed to each receptive field having its own bias and vector weighting. A deconvolutional neural network is essentially the reverse of a CNN. It consists of deconvolutional layers and unpooling layers. A deconvolutional layer

2736-444: The same shared weights, requires only 25 neurons. Using regularized weights over fewer parameters avoids the vanishing gradients and exploding gradients problems seen during backpropagation in earlier neural networks. To speed processing, standard convolutional layers can be replaced by depthwise separable convolutional layers, which are based on a depthwise convolution followed by a pointwise convolution. The depthwise convolution

2793-433: The shared-weight architecture of the convolution kernels or filters that slide along input features and provide translation- equivariant responses known as feature maps. Counter-intuitively, most convolutional neural networks are not invariant to translation , due to the downsampling operation they apply to the input. Feed-forward neural networks are usually fully connected networks, that is, each neuron in one layer

2850-455: The two basic types of layers: In a variant of the neocognitron called the cresceptron , instead of using Fukushima's spatial averaging with inhibition and saturation, J. Weng et al. in 1993 introduced a method called max-pooling where a downsampling unit computes the maximum of the activations of the units in its patch. Max-pooling is often used in modern CNNs. Several supervised and unsupervised learning algorithms have been proposed over

2907-438: The value of a pixel into account, as well as its surrounding pixels. When using dilated layers, the number of pixels in the receptive field remains constant, but the field is more sparsely populated as its dimensions grow when combining the effect of several layers. To manipulate the receptive field size as desired, there are some alternatives to the standard convolutional layer. For example, atrous or dilated convolution expands

2964-528: The way the brain achieves vision processing in living organisms . Work by Hubel and Wiesel in the 1950s and 1960s showed that cat visual cortices contain neurons that individually respond to small regions of the visual field . Provided the eyes are not moving, the region of visual space within which visual stimuli affect the firing of a single neuron is known as its receptive field . Neighboring cells have similar and overlapping receptive fields. Receptive field size and location varies systematically across

3021-593: Was 20 times faster than an equivalent implementation on CPU . In 2005, another paper also emphasised the value of GPGPU for machine learning . The first GPU-implementation of a CNN was described in 2006 by K. Chellapilla et al. Their implementation was 4 times faster than an equivalent implementation on CPU. In the same period, GPUs were also used for unsupervised training of deep belief networks . In 2010, Dan Ciresan et al. at IDSIA trained deep feedforward networks on GPUs. In 2011, they extended this to CNNs, accelerating by 60 compared to training CPU. In 2011,

3078-573: Was honored with an Academy Award for Technical Achievement . OpenEXR 2.0 was released in April 2013, extending the format with support for deep image buffers and multiple images embedded in a single file. Version 2.2, released August 2014, added the lossy DWA compression format. The OpenEXR software distribution includes: OpenEXR has support for color depth using: There are three general types of lossless compression built into OpenEXR, with two different methods of Zip compressing. For most images without

3135-408: Was introduced in 1987 by Alex Waibel et al. for phoneme recognition and was one of the first convolutional networks, as it achieved shift-invariance. A TDNN is a 1-D convolutional neural net where the convolution is performed along the time axis of the data. It is the first CNN utilizing weight sharing in combination with a training by gradient descent, using backpropagation . Thus, while also using

3192-441: Was not used in his neocognitron, since all the weights were nonnegative; lateral inhibition was used instead. The rectifier has become the most popular activation function for CNNs and deep neural networks in general. The " neocognitron " was introduced by Kunihiko Fukushima in 1979. The kernels were trained by unsupervised learning . It was inspired by the above-mentioned work of Hubel and Wiesel. The neocognitron introduced

3249-484: Was proposed in 1988 for application to decomposition of one-dimensional electromyography convolved signals via de-convolution. This design was modified in 1989 to other de-convolution-based designs. Although CNNs were invented in the 1980s, their breakthrough in the 2000s required fast implementations on graphics processing units (GPUs). In 2004, it was shown by K. S. Oh and K. Jung that standard neural networks can be greatly accelerated on GPUs. Their implementation
